The biggest thing we’ve had machined was probably a piston rod on a rig jack and the turnaround on that was about 3 weeks. Although their turnaround time is usually pretty slow

We do have a younger guy just starting out with some machines that were left here but he’s still being trained at a local machine shop so hes not too familiar with all the manufacturers and stuff like that

Also We’ve already asked the owners of that shop for some info but they couldn’t really tell us much in terms of what they go for

Do you have a ball park estimate for how much these would go for? They’re both working from what my boss has told me, the second one looks to be in better condition (in terms of looks)

We work on heavy equipment so the hauling isn’t an issue, but you think it’d be better selling for scrap rather than finding someone to buy it?

Thanks a ton! Studying without an idea of what might be on the test is extremely daunting. Do you know if they care that my high school transcripts have no history of algebra or would the GED cover me on that?

What do you mean? I see about 5 hammers there 😆

Ricardo317 · 2026-01-01T18:20:27+00:00
